The key fits but the lock won’t open
It leaves me wondering what’s wrong
I’m just like them, but I’m so different
And this feeling I fight is too strong
How am I flying so high without wings?
Yet I fall so very suddenly and steep
My mind twisting around these things
Leading my train of thought in too deep
The precious sense of belonging
Pokes me, and then it’s gone
I wish I could make it stay
Make it stay forever long
The wind is slowly blowing the sand
Off my truth’s hidden stone
Keeps blowing until the sand has vanished
And my sacred rock stands alone
‘There lies a petal that has fallen
From a flower where petals still hold
It is part of them, but then again it’s not
This petal lays in winter’s cold’
Blinking eyes stare at this rock
Foggy eyes see what has come
A place of belonging waiting
But only the one I’m from
Pushing away all my pondering
I walk away from this past
My feet trampling my lonely road
So that the cold dust won’t last
If this life won’t take me for who I am
I will return the favor
In the end I’ll find my way
Something I shall savor
